Poilievre against separation, but says Alberta has a "right to be frustrated"
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he opposes Alberta separatism, but added that Albertans have a “right to be frustrated” with Ottawa.
“I’m against separation. I’m a born and raised Albertan. I love Canada. I think we need to unite this country,” he said.
Poilievre said Alberta’s oil and gas industry had been “under attack” for the last decade. “Frankly, Albertans have a right to be frustrated,” he added.
Poilievre said Ottawa “can’t tell Alberta to just pay up and shut up.”
“Albertans want to be part of a united Canada, but they deserve to be treated with respect, and they deserve to be honoured for the immense contribution that they make to this country,” he said.
